MICRONEEDLING and MARKS
S TRETCH MARKS (striae) are indented streaks that
often appear on the abdomen, breasts, hips, but-tocks & thighs. Stretch marks typically appear as bands of parallel lines on your skin.
These lines are a different color and texture than your normal skin, and range from purple to bright pink to light gray. When you touch stretch marks with your fingers, you might feel a slight ridge or indentation on your skin.
CAUSES Stretch marks are caused by stretching of the skin. Their severity is affected by several factors, including your ge-netic tendency, degree of stress on the skin and cortisol level. Cortisol, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, weakens elastic fibers in the skin.
RISK FACTORS Anyone can develop stretch marks. Some factors that can increase the likelihood of getting stretch marks, include:
being a woman
being Caucasian (having pale skin)
having a family history of stretch marks
being pregnant
having a history of delivering large babies or twins
being overweight
having dramatic weight loss or gain
using corticosteroid medications including anabolic steroids
adrenal gland disorders (increased cortisone levels)
SIGNS and SYMPTOMS Striae are rarely painful or itchy. They begin as linear red streaks and eventually mature into linear white lines. Stretch marks are not harmful, but some individuals are distressed or embarrassed by the way they make their skin look.

T REATMENT OF STRETCH MARKS
It is generally agreed that there is no good medi-
cal evidence that any creams or ointments will produce any sustained improvement in the ap-pearance of stretch marks.
Moisturizing your skin may help to relieve the itchiness of stretch marks. Applying self-tanning lotion to your stretch marks is a temporary way to minimize the difference in color be-tween your normal skin and your stretch marks. Stretch marks can be improved with lasers and micro needling. Treatment is dependent on the type of stretch mark and your skin type.
.
M ICRO-NEEDLING at York Vein & Laser Clinic
is done with a small hand held device that makes tiny controlled punctures called a micro-wound. These micro-wounds initiate
the skin’s repair process to naturally produce collagen & elastin, ideal for smoothing fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks.
Micro-channels that are created by the treatment allow for optimal absorption of topical products, enhancing their effects in the deeper layers of skin. Topical products containing anti-oxidants, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and retinols are applied during treat-ments and driven in by the needling. Laser and IPL can be added later to remove the red veins. RF skin tightening can be added.
